I don't like living so close to this:



The North Anna nuclear plant sits along an earthquake fault, one of the objections raised when the facility was proposed in the early 1970s. The potential for earthquakes and North Anna were again in the news in March after the Fukushima Dai-ichi disaster in Japan.


Dominion Power has maintained that the plant is designed to withstand earthquakes up to magnitude 6.2.
